Baroque music opens the world of historic sound, and can lead both musician and audience on countless voyages of musical discovery. Travel through time with our performers and hear the amazing 'new' sounds of 'old' instruments and music.

Special $2 Tickets for
Young Students

We offer donor-subsidised $2 tickets for youth in an effort to bring young audiences to our early music concerts. As all concerts are recorded, we do expect all audience members to sit reasonably still between pieces. As we realize this challenge

. . . we seek to accommodate families with young children and are providing a toy box in the concert lobby for those children and parents who need to step outside for a break.
